CHILLING pictures have emerged of a female serial killer who "jumped around like a schoolgirl" when she read that she was wanted for murder.

Joanna Dennehy, 31, has admitted stabbling three men to death and dumping their bodies in Cambridgeshire, England.

Dennehy, pleaded guilty in November to the murders of her lover Kevin Lee, 48, his friend Lukasz Slaboszewski, 31, and housemate John Chapman, 56. She stabbed all three men in the heart in March and April last year and admitted to two other attempted murders.

In the new pictures, Dennehy can be seen sticking her tongue out playfully while brandishing a jagged knife and with handcuffs on her pants.

In another shot she reveals her bra and the scars from relentless self-harming.

Her friend Georgina Page, who Dennehy met in prison, told Cambridge Crown Court that Dennehy and Gary Stretch - whose real name is Gary Richards - made an unplanned visit to her home while they were being hunted by police.

After reading that she and Stretch were wanted by the police, Page says Dennehy "jumped around like a schoolgirl."

Page said Dennehy compared her and Stretch to Bonnie and Clyde and when she was asked why she killed three men she replied, "They shouldn't have pissed me off, they shouldn't have flirted with me."

A friend of Stretch's, Mark Lloyd, told the court, that he was driven around by the pair and forced to watch on helplessly as Dennehy tried to kill two strangers in Hereford.

He said she told him: "I’ve killed three people, Gary helped dispose of them and I want to do some more. I want some fun."

Mr Lloyd said the car then stopped on a road, Dennehy got out and began stabbing a man who had been crossing the road.

The victim survived, but Mr Lloyd said Dennehy then went on to stab another man and took his dog.

Dennehy is awaiting sentencing but the trial of three alleged accomplices Gary Richards, 47, Leslie Layton, 36, and Robert Moore, 55, continues.
